Looks like KBin has an edge over Lemmy now in terms of monthly active users.
It’s obviously a pretty silly thing, and is not in any way indicative of which project is “better” or more “long-term viable” or anything — instances of both federate with one another, and with the rest of fedi, so it’s all one happy family.
That said, it’s notable. KBin is a relative newcomer to the “Reddit-like fedi instance” game, and also does not have the tankie baggage.
Anyway, the more, the merrier!

Is there any way to cross-index between kbin/lemmy so that threads show up under All? I joined kbin first but ended up changing to lemmy since the iOS experience was cleaner, it would be nice to make it simpler for the two to interact.
Yep, the only reason it isn’t happening for you is that the creator of kbin.social has temporarily broken federation to protect his server against DDOS attacks.
